What am I doing while college football is on? AND when the weather is quiet? Well, I have been looking up some fun facts about August.

The second half of the month was very warm. The average high temperature between August 16th and 31st was 83°. That is about 5 degrees above average! We had several 90° days, which bumped up our count for 2013 - check out the graphic.

Temperatures during the first half of the month actually dropped down into the 40s! Temperatures during the first half of the month were 4 degrees below average.

Tomorrow is September! September 1st is actually the start of meteorological fall. We start out the month with an average high temperature of 76°, by the end of the month, that number drops down to 63°. To put things into perspective during the month of August our average high temperature only drops by 4 degrees.

So while we are on the topic of cooler weather - did you know Milwaukee has recorded snow in every month except June, July and August? True! Officially Milwaukee has reported snow in all four seasons because it snowed September 20, 1954.

Anyway, that is all for now - Jeremy will have another entry tomorrow. Enjoy your night! You can follow me on Twitter @ChrisGloninger
